I don't think you can deny that Jesus ministry was one of new revelation. Whatever he taught in that instance does not deny that fact. Heb 1:1,2 " God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His...

I hadn't thought of that verse.... I guess that throws out the 'no expository sermon in the New T.' argument. I guess, maybe they wouldn't consider that a sermon...not sure i do.

"rather than taking a book of the OT and going through it chapter by chapter or verse by verse." Because they had a ministry of 'new revelation'. Why would we think that we should handle preaching in the same manner as those who had a ministry of new revelation, a ministry so odd that it was...

Hebrews 2:3-4  How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according...

Those 'topical sermons' had the Holy Ghost bearing witness to them with signs and wonders...and I think there is a lot to be said for preaching Scripture in the manner in which God revealed it.

I hate to say it, but it now seems that more sermons discourage me than help me.

In case you don't go upstairs. This is an issue that has grieved me much. The Lord has greatly convicted me concerning the subject of this post and placed me on a journey that I hope my fellow IFB preacher friends will join me on...

Just saw this: CINDY SCHAAP FILED FOR DIVORCE IN DURHAM COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA ON MAY 29, 2014. The filing number is 14CVD345. This information was provided to me by the Durham County Court Clerk on June 4, 2014. Anyone know how to check and see if it is true?

Original members? I don't know. By the mid-nineties it consisted of: Jack Hyles Ray Young Bob Gray Tom Neal Micheal Haynes Dean Miller John Vaperszan Bill Burr

The KJV is the only Bible you can buy at the dollar store....which probably has a lot to do with those stats.

I thought it was funny that someone recorded the video and posted it to facebook with the heading "FBC's new invitation format", mainly because it doesn't seem like much of a difference and secondly, because, who cares? It seems some still have an overinflated perspective on the role that church...

Why would you wait until it reached this point to talk to him?

The major reason I believe someone attends church is to fulfill their role within the body, that there be no schism in the body. You and your pastor have a role within the body of Christ, the church. The church, as His body is how He is known and how he functions. Members are to humbly and...

When I left college, the altar call would fill every step from the top of the platform to the bottom, all the way across and then extend halfway down the aisles. Obviously, an altar call does not determine the spiritual level of a congregation but I do find it interesting that not even the...

This was posted to youtube and facebook, dubbed as FBC's new invitation format. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yi33tMq0O9w Talk about sweeping radical change.

Exactly.

You leave in your heart first, then you find a reason.

If you are not spiritually growing that is on you, not your pastor. If one needed a pastor to grow spiritually, pastors would be the most spiritually immature among us. Serve God and the people in your church, and grow in your walk with God an understanding of Scriptures alone. Buy good books...
